Velez form and stats
7 victories, 2 draws and 6 defeats. That’s what Velez have to build on here at Stadion Bijeli Brijeg in the Premier Liga. Velez has won so many consecutive home games (four in a row) that they struggle to remember the last time points were lost here at Stadion Bijeli Brijeg. We remember; it was Sloga.
In their previous game, the manager Dudic led his Velez to a defeat away at Borac Banja Luka. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Stadion Bijeli Brijeg.
The Velez fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 18 in 15 matches. Velez have conceded 17 in these home matches. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 2 of these goals has been conceded in their last three home matches.
Sarajevo form and stats
The story so far for the visiting team on their Premier Liga travels is 5 wins, 3 draws and 7 defeats. The pressure to perform on the road is increasing on Vasoski, the Sarajevo manager, as the last three away games were defeats.
Ahmetović scored in Sarajevo's previous match, the home game against Sloboda Tuzla that ended 1-0.
Many goals are not expected from the visiting Sarajevo as they have only managed to score 13 times from 15 away games in the league. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 0 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. As opposed to that, Sarajevo have seen the ball go into their own net 17 times on the road.
